The last week (Weds 31st May - Tuesday 6th of June) has been remarkble
for the amount of sunshine in west Cornwall. Apart from a little thin
high cloud on Sunday it's been close to the maximum possible. - Almost
ceratinly around 105 hours for the week.

If anyone can provide me with the figures for Falmouth for w/c last
Tuesday 31st May I would appreciate it (Philip / Roger?) - I realise
there's a few hours to go.

Graham, Camborne recorded 99.2h on the KZ sensor and 98.5h
on the CS recorder (confirming my contention that the KZ
actually records more than the CS during spells of continuous sun)
for the seven days May 29 to June 4, plus another 14h Monday and
almost 15h yesterday. Culdrose (CS) had 99.2h for the week,
Pendennis (CS) 90.5h (but I wouldn't trust their figure), and St Mawgan
100.9h (CS).

I doubt it's a record even for the county ... unfortunately most of
my books and papers are currently boxed up so I can't really
research it. If the sunny spell should continue for 14 days, though, it
could well be up there with the very best.

Could we persuade you to add a basic sunshine sensor at your
site? Is your horizon sufficiently clear?
